International-Business Political Behavior: New Theoretical Directions
提出关于国际商业政治性质的新假设,将政府视为生产要素,分析企业、行业与非市场因素的互动如何影响政治行为的形式与强度,并讨论其对资源基础战略理论的启示。
Alternative assumptions are advanced regarding the political nature of international business and the role of government as a factor of production, which firms must manage in their international value-added chains. Based on a model of business political behavior, various propositions are developed regarding the interactions among firm, industry, and nonmarket factors as well as the impact they have on various forms and intensities of political behavior, as affected by strategic objectives. Finally, the strategic-theorizing implications of such behavior are discussed in the context of the recent emphasis on resource-based models of strategy management.
